Default Create Your Own Mobile Hotspot

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/07/t...pogue.html?_r=1

"Someday, we'll tell our grandchildren how we had to drive around town looking for a coffee shop when we needed to get online, and they'll laugh their heads off. Every building in America has running water, electricity and ventilation; what's the holdup on universal wireless Internet?"

And so begins the review David Pogue wrote for the New York Times on a clever little device called the MiFi, which allows you to create your own wireless network. This Novatel device creates a wireless network with a range of up to 30 feet, and will allow up to five users access. Verizon will be offering this in mid-May, and it will be available in a variety of pricing levels, from daily pay as you go usage to the $60.00/month USD plan for up to 5 Gigs of usage. Anything on the monthly plan will require the obligatory two year commitment of course.
